Solidworks 2017 Using the latest URDF exporter plugin

When I click Preview and Export, it's taking too long to create joint origins and axes (more than an hour).

I have attached my assembly for reference. SW Aseembly

The issue tracker that you already posted to is probably the place to get support for the plugin.

are you specifying joints type in SW2URDF extension window? Try it with 'automatically selected'. I think it will work.

ThanksI Yeah that was the issue. The window is opening now. However the joint detection is incorrect. Revolute joints are detected as fixed. So I'll have to manually sepcify the axis for revolute/continuous joints right?

yes, you can specify in joint properties window.
